أInformation-Based Economyؤ, which is today̕s economy that is a proof and indicator of development level for the countries now on, comes on the scene with its new organizing model on the infrastructure of its own, which is called أInformation Societyؤ. The phenomenon of administration introduces to أe-Governmentؤ for reinforcing the roots of أInformation-Based Economyؤ now. The objective of this study is to research the transformation of state, authoritarian and dominant power, that أInformation-Based Economyؤ gives direction in the environment of أInformation Societyؤ and to determine the locus and focus of أe-governmentؤ as a new organizing model especially in the dilemma between administration and management, and in the dilemma between politics and administration by using the theories of public administration, keeping the variance of culture in mind. In addition, to have a systematic knowledge of the relation between أInformation-Based Economyؤ, أInformation Societyؤ and أe-Governmentؤ as a whole composes of the theme of this thesis. For this purpose, questionnaire has been conducted in the Ministry of National Education, which is responsible for forming the society of the future, to understand whether there is a systematic knowledge on the relation between أInformation-Based Economyؤ, أInformation Societyؤ and أe-Governmentؤ as a whole. Moreover, it has been aimed to discover what the mental formulations of participants are. Questionnaire results reveal that there is no systematic knowledge on the relation between أInformation-Based Economyؤ, Information Societyؤ and أe-Governmentؤ as a whole in the Ministry of National Education, and that the participants are apt to perceive أe-Governmentؤ within the context in which they are in terms of professions, status and backgrounds. Questionnaire results also show that the responses given by the participants concerning

Observing the deficiencies of traditional methods in meeting the demands of today̕s infrastructure development has been motivating countries towards privatization of these sectors. However, due to the differences in these sectors as compared to other businesses, privatization can not be performed without strict regulations. Today, concession agreements like BOT models seem the best way for solving the problems. Financing of concession agreements plays a key role. In Turkey, most BOT projects are financed by...

The number of countries where BIM is mandatory to be used in projects is increasing day by day because of its data intensive structure. In addition to improving coordination and collaboration in the projects, BIM helps the stakeholders to visualize the project and make more accurate estimations at the preconstruction stage. In the process, some of the problems previously encountered are solved by adapting BIM system into the project but there are still many problems to be solved by using other technologies ...
